Notes. 

(a)

Mass of the star.

(b)

Photospheric radius.

(c)

Mass loss rate of the steady fast wind.

(d)

Mass loss rate of the slow equatorial wind.

(e)

Global time at which the intermittent equatorial ejections start.

(f)

Global time at which the intermittent equatorial ejections end.

(g)

Duration of the individual slow-wind episodes.

(h)

Time span in between any two slow-wind episodes.

(i)

Total power of the steady, radiatively driven fast wind on the main sequence.

(j)

Flux of Lyman-Werner photons (912   Å–1100   Å) at 1 Myr after reaching the main sequence; this is roughly constant during the main sequence.
